About this Event
Join us for the release of Sometimes a Woman Is King, the latest album from Amy Atchley!
Austin, TX based singer-songwriter Amy Atchley has a long history of performing in Austin and New York City since the 90’s. With four solo releases under her belt, Amy returned to the studio to record a new a collection of songs to be released in the coming months! The project, featuring 9 tracks (8 originals and one cover) were written on piano and/or guitar which serve as the record’s backbone to support Atchley’s signature ethereal and incandescent vocals, giving the music a moody, yet irresistible vibe.
The recording project marks another chapter in Amy’s musical narrative. In addition to her previous four solo albums and stints in critically-acclaimed Austin groups Fabu and Hush, she can be heard on jingles used in national ad campaigns for Disney, eBay, the NY Lottery, Barbie/Mattel and more. Her new record scheduled for release in the Fall 2022, Atchley delivers expertly crafted indie pop reminiscent of artists such as Lana Del Ray, Fiona Apple, Kate Bush, Vanessa Carlton, and Tori Amos.
Born and raised in Houston-Gavleston area, Atchley is based in Austin after several years spent honing her skills in New York City at legendary venues like CBGB’s Gallery, The Bitter End and The Living Room. A graduate of the University of Texas’ School of Music, Atchley draws upon a number of influences ranging from classical musings of Elly Ameling to the raw-edged provocation of PJ Harvey. Her backing band, which includes strings and horns (Atchley contributes on piano and guitar), is versatile and incorporates all of Atchley’s varied influences, resulting in an infectious indie pop sound that is fronted by Amy’s wistful soprano. She resides in a green community, where she is a prominent leader for social and environmental justice programs. She is mom to two teen girls and married to Austin’s “Texas Tenor” critically acclaimed jazz saxophonist, Elias Haslanger.
